El uso de aditamentos y técnicas para garantizar este propósito marca la diferencia entre un pronóstico satisfactorio a uno desalentador para un paciente grave. En este contexto se presentan dos casos, ambos masculinos, uno de 46 años con obesidad mórbida con deterioro neurológico y desaturación de oxígeno, y uno de 33 años VIH positivo con síndrome de dificultad respiratoria por neumonía, donde tras intentos fallidos de laringoscopía directa con la consecuencia de lesión de la hipofaringe y sangrado, el personal especializado en vía aérea que acudió como apoyo utilizó el catéter DuCanto (SSCOR Inc.) conectado a un ventilador mecánico como medio para mantener la oxigenación del paciente tras insertarlo a través de las cuerdas vocales y, aprovechando su diseño, se adaptó a la hipofaringe, lo que permitió ventilar a estos dos pacientes para posteriormente deslizar un Bougie de intubación a través de la luz del catéter e intercambiar el catéter por un tubo endotraqueal.]]></p></abstract>

Two cases are presented, a 46-year-old male with morbid obesity neurological deterioration and oxygen desaturation, as well as a 33-year-old HIV positive with respiratory distress syndrome due to pneumonia, and after failed attempts at using direct laryngoscopy with the secondary of injury to the hypopharynx and bleeding, the specialized airway personnel who came as support used the DuCanto catheter (SSCOR Inc.) connected to a mechanical ventilator to maintain the patient&#8217;s oxygenation after inserting it through the vocal cords, taking advantage of its design that adapts to the hypopharynx. It allowed these two patients to be ventilated and then slide an intubation Bougie through the DuCanto catheter and afterwards exchange the catheter for an endotracheal tube.]]></p></abstract>
